Mudita or empathetic joy is one of the four ancient Buddhist heart practices called the brahmaviharās or four divine abodes: loving-kindness, empathetic joy, compassion, and equanimity. It is a wonderful practice for connecting with another's joy or success and leanring how fully open we are to their good fortune. This practice also illuminates resistances and similar, but different, qualities to Mudita, such as envy, comparison, or insincerity.
